If you’re the type that wants to make serious movies and videos, here’s the idea rig for you to put together.

Your editing PC must have:

1. A capture card. This to capture video that is not recorded digitally into a hard disk or memory stick. You can also use this up capture videos from your old VCDs and VHS tapes.

2. A lot pf processing speed. You need at least an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 or any equivalent to handle the processing requirements smoothly.

3. At least 2gb RAM. Video editing software, especially the more advanced ones, need a lot of memory. So if you’re also using Windows Vista, you’ll be needing a lot more for smoother operation.

4. Hard disk space. A lot of it. Raw video tends to be large – some even breaching 1gb EACH, so you need space both for that and the output.
